Strategies for a digital music affiliate blog.

In my last post I talked about an area that the beginning affiliate marketer could use to quickly get started in affiliate marketing. I mentioned that I would talk about strategies and that is my intention for this post.

How to get started as an affiliate for digital music.

First you probably need a blog or web site to start your affiliate marketing.

Then you need to think about the kinds of merchants that you want to affiliate yourself with. What kind of blog would you like to start? What kind of music do you like? What sources will you be using for your music?

These are all questions that you need to work out prior to starting your digital music affiliate blog. I will provide some answers, you do not have to use these methods, but these are provided as examples.

What kind of blog would you like to start? A blog that reviews music and provides samples of music via mp3s.

What kind of music do you like? Classical Music.

What sources will you be using for your music? I will refer readers to Amazon.com's collection of downloadable mp3s as well as classical music radio stations, which also offer free legal downloadable files.

After answering these questions, you are now poised to decide on the merchants that you will use. As listed in last post any of the following would be great for an affiliate that was considering a music affiliate blog.

apple iTunes
Sony Music online
Music Match
etc

I hope this post gave you some ideas of how you can get started in affiliate marketing by starting a digital music affiliate blog.
